Action Comics continues to be a great place for Superman readers. Waid and Henry are definitely "All In on this. It's strong enough that it almost doesn't matter that the Supergirl story is lackluster- well, don't tell that to Supergirl fans. Action Comcis #1076 continues to be a bright spot for DC Comics and Superman! Read Full Review
These two have been so much fun in this story that it makes me wonder how it's taken DC so long to get a proper Teen Titans or Young Justice series going again they have so many great players. But a big cliffhanger sets the stakes high for the next chapter. Read Full Review
Action Comics #1076 will hit readers in the emotions when they least expect it, but that's a good thing. Sometimes a good superhero story isn't a slugfest or a genre-defining epic. Sometimes, it'll hit you in the heart. Read Full Review
This issue pushes the storyline further, but only partially. While the plot as a whole has been exciting and interesting, this issue feels inconsequential and filler. I look forward to next weeks issue and hope for more action and plot progression. Read Full Review
I know I haven't mentioned Meghan Hetrick's art too much. She isn't given much to do here. Her close-ups of Supergirl are quite nice. Anyways, as always the biggest losers here are Supergirl fans who hoped this would be a spotlight on her that would lead to something bigger like a solo title. Read Full Review
the supergirl backup story drag this issue down hard
The Supergirl stories continue to make this comic a no go when it comes to adding this title to my pull list. Half a comic or short back-ups that are, in wrestling terms, mid to bottom card quality seem to continue to plague DC books. I'd rather save a dollar and get half a comic that's higher quality than pay for second-rate content. Multiple Supes family stories are perfect for Action Comics but the entirety of the book has to pass muster or the score (and interest) drops drastically.
